Disclaimer from last time: “This one is quite the pain to use, because it seems to count data from below the Top 300 cutoff, which would also count any small sales from RE versions. There is simply no way it could be correct otherwise, because the averages it implies directly contradict the extended rankings. Also as before, I’ve settled on calculating a batch adjustment at the series level, and adding that to the total average. I will not try to spread these discs out across individual volumes, as that would end any hope of tracking them reliably via the extended rankings. Even as a one-time adjustment, it can be very tricky if not downright impossible to calculate this 100% accurately for titles that span both 2014 and 2015 so I’m not claiming this is on the nose right down to the last disc. But it should be pretty close.”

If you’re wondering where Osomatsu-san and the Garupan movie are, they aren’t here because we already have more current data from the weekly ranking than from this mid-year ranking, given that the latter stops a few weeks ago.

44,038 Soukyuu no Fafner Exodus season 2
• Previously known sales: 38,682 = 38,682 v1-6
• Addition: 5,356
• Average: 6,447 → 7,340
• Note: Note that this does not separate the two seasons, but the last disc of season one released in August 2015 so any season one sales in 2016 should be minimal.

42,846 Gintama°
• Previously known sales: 35,211 = 35,211 v6-11
• Addition: 7,635
• Average: 6,294 → 7,566
• Note: A very unusually large jump but it specifically lists 銀魂° rather than all of Gintama and I don’t see any live events or anything in in Oricon’s database that could have slipped in.

26,188 Yuru Yuri San Hai!
• Previously known sales: 23,433 = 23,433 v1-6
• Addition: 2,755
• Average: 3,906 → 4,365
• Note: Nice to see this make the list. I really did not expect that. Most of this data should be wk2+ for v5-6, so that’s great. San Hai’s release timing was very fortunate. v1wk1 was at the start of the period, and v6 came out with enough time to spare to let this ranking catch wk2+. It slotted into the reporting period perfectly.
